Bukayo Saka (RW) - 7.5/10 - Gave Mendes the run around in the first half and enjoyed making his usual charges down the right side. Nicked a goal back with a finish into an empty net but then missed a brilliant chance just minutes later.

Mikel Merino (ST) - 6.5/10 - Didn't offer too much in attack and lost a lot of battles to his opponents. Was good in the air at times however and did well to bring down long balls from Raya to start attacking moves.

Gabriel Martinelli (LW) - 7/10 - Caused problems for Hakimi early on and tracked back brilliantly to help defend against counterattacks. His influence faded in the second half though and was replaced with 20 to go.
